    The Waitroses in my area is full of old people like properly full.

    M&S is apparently the best supermarket to shop in as generally not busy except at lunchtime.

      I’d be more worried about young ones!

Covid victims are usually as a result of long term exposure (about an hour or more) with an infected person or carrier. The best research and detective work on this was done in South Korea. One incident found that a couple got infected after sitting in the same seats in church that were occupied by an infected couple an hour earlier.

          Coming back to the "OAP parent went... to the supermarket..." No doubt OAP was visited long time by family members who may carry Covid and was infected in that manner. People do not want to admit they they maybe the carriers of something that kills their own kin. After a family or other visit, everything has to be sanitised or disinfected, opening windows is a good start.

          BTW, airline travel is very risky especially on newer aircraft. New aircraft do not have full fresh air ventilation in order to save fuel.

          This makes an interesting read...

          Covid: Pizza worker'''s '''lie''' forced South Australia lockdown - BBC News

          South Australia decided to enter a state-wide lockdown based on a lie told by a man with Covid-19 about his link to a pizza shop, police say.

          The strict lockdown began on Wednesday after the state detected 36 infections, including its first locally acquired cases since April.

          But this would have been avoided if the man had told the truth, that he worked shifts at the shop, officials said.

          He said he only went there to buy a pizza.

          This misinformation prompted health officials to assume the man had caught the virus during a very brief exposure and that the strain must be a highly contagious one.

              This blasted virus. It doesn't spare anyone, despite their commitment to protection.
